Founded in Spain in 1981 as a subsidiary of Unión Fenosa (a major energy company), Norcontrol became a leading provider of technical assistance, inspection, testing, and consultancy services across a wide range of industries.
The company developed extensive expertise supporting both private organizations and public bodies throughout all phases of a project lifecycle, from tendering and design to execution, operation, and maintenance.
With a strong presence in Spain and Latin America, including operations in Colombia, Peru, Panama, and other regional markets, Norcontrol became an end-to-end partner for infrastructure, energy, industrial, telecommunications, and public-sector projects.
Following its integration into the Applus+ Group, Norcontrol progressively transitioned to the Applus+ brand and became globally recognized as Applus+ Norcontrol.
